U.S. Roaming - Data not working

JohnnyXI
Great Citizen / Super Citoyen

I bought the 10 day $20 U.S. roaming plan on 2019-11-17
My usage shows as follows:
Data & Add-Ons / Amount Used
1GB Promo 0 / 1024 MB
500MB + 500MB at 3G Speed
69.584 / 1024 MB
US Roaming - 250 MB Data (10-day) 0 / 250 MB
Phone and text work great but data is not happening, i.e., Chrome browser cannot connect etc.
Anyone know what's the problem ?

Go to settings, more networks, then select mobile networks, then select roaming.

@JohnnyXI  Since Public Mobile  is strictly a prepaid service, you might want to consider leaving roaming on all the time won't hurt anything and eliminates the need to turn it on anytime you are in the US.


Seems like a plan to me. I have a video camera set up to watch my house temperature and sump pump while I'm away so that would seem the way to go. Thanks for your input.

Dig around in your cell data area. Something will say roaming.

Does your cell data (not wifi) otherwise work back home?

@JohnnyXI  Need to turn on data roaming on your device.

Have you enabled roaming?  Also try rebooting your phone.
